that launch makes the best sound, i love it. Secondly. they are going to change that launch speed right? it barely makes it over that top hat.

Itll vary. Youll see it go over with that speed, then faster, then a lil slower, then whatever. Its a rocket. And since its not utilizing a trim at the top of the top hat to control the g's, the speed will vary throughout the day.

Dont expect it to maintain a set speed over the top. However, I doubt itll really detract from the ride experience. Much like Storm Runner.

Wow, i had no idea this thing inverted. Easily one of the most innovative and creative rockets out there today.

Keep in mind that during testing is where the park wants the rollbacks and varying speed settings to take place. That way they fully account for all launch needs by the time the ride is set to open.

Technically, this ride is not a rocket, it has LSMs.

Thank god for Intamin [:D]

Video of the first test with people on board!
I envy them...

And, omg, it even seems to have a brief pop of air on the dip to the brakes! <3

that launch is SICK!!!!!!! and i like the idea of a little pop of air right after the brakes. me luv this ride. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Yea...cuz that will be talked about for ages to come. lol.

Launch seems just like Maverick.

Yeah...too bad it starts moving before the big acceleration. That'll kill a lot of the launch excitement for me. IMO, not knowing when the launch is coming is often scarier than the actual launch, plus initial jerk is also exciting and that may be reduced now.

Still easily the best rocket coaster though...the beginning of the launch is only a small detail. They made some weird decisions with some of the ride I think, but overall it'll be absolutely awesome.

So glad I'm half Italian and have family in Italy...that means, though likely it'll never happen, there's always that tiny possibility that I might get to ride haha. Better than nothing

Launch looks like blue fire, Abrubt and fast

I hope to ride this one time

yeah tbh that not knowing when it's going to launch is a massive part of the launch experience for me,i think that would detract from my overall enjoyment actually

New video, showing some sexy track!

Also, soft opening this weekend, and official opening June 20th!

It's a big reason why Xcelerator's launch is my favorite.

not fair they get to keep their heartline roll but maverick had to take his out

Fairness has nothing to do with it. This roll is completely different, especially in speed and shaping, which is why they're not taking it out.

Wow.Very nice launch and nice drops

Lets hope Kings Dominion really does get one of these. Theirs a slight chance that it will, but its better than nothing.

Some new photos

Thank you.

Everybody comments the roller coaster

[gouldy]

what!?

Ive read one preview review that states its a good ride, however it didnt live up to the hype. He stated it wasnt "all he thought it would be". Which, I can see that.
